“…This is made possible by planning several factors such as make all the components of the system to operate at low duty cycle as possible, efficient use of transmission power while designing the protocols, design of energy-efficient routing protocols, minimizing the circuit's energy, energy-efficient node scheduling at MAC, proper power management, etc. The various CLD proposed in the existing works to increase the energy efficiency and hence the lifetime of the underwater network's [29][30][31][32][33][34][35][36][37][38][39] are reviewed in detail and the comparison is given in Table 1 with their findings.…”

The research in Underwater Wireless Sensor Networks (UWSNs) has gained momentum over the last two decades owing to the vast applications it supports like environmental monitoring, underwater exploration, disaster prevention, military, navigation assistance, etc. The sensor nodes deployed underwater have limited battery capacity. The main challenge is to design energy-efficient protocols facing the constraints due to peculiar characteristics and harsh underwater environment. The traditional layered approach is inadequate and insufficient for this purpose, hence Cross-layer Design (CLD) is the need of the hour that allows information exchange among the different layers to find an optimal solution with better utilization of scarce resources to improve the network performance. As far as we are aware, there is no survey paper available in the literature dedicated to CLD in UWSN's. We present the unique characteristics of the acoustic channel and its corresponding issues and challenges. The different proposals in the literature are categorized and compared based on the performance metrics. The basic approach for each scheme is detailed with its advantages and shortcomings which will help future researchers to overcome them to design efficient schemes.

In the recent past, a significant increase has been observed in the use of underwater wireless sensor networks for aquatic applications. However, underwater wireless sensor networks face several challenges including large propagation delays, high mobility, limited bandwidth, three-dimensional deployments, expensive manufacturing, and energy constraints. It is crucial for underwater wireless sensor networks to mitigate all these limitations primarily caused by the harsh underwater environment. To address some of the pertinent challenges, adaptive hop-by-hop cone vector-based forwarding routing protocol is proposed in this article which is based on the adaptive hop-by-hop vector-based forwarding. The novelty of adaptive hop-by-hop cone vector-based forwarding includes increasing the transmission reliability in sparse sensor regions by changing the base angle of the cone according to the network structure. The number of duplicate packets and end-to-end delay is also reduced because of the reduced base angle and a smart selection criterion for the potential forwarder node. The proposed routing protocol adaptively tunes the height and opening of the cone based on the network structure to effectively improve the performance of the network. Conclusively, this approach significantly reduces energy tax, end-to-end delay, and packet delivery ratio.

“…As far as the propagation delay and energy efficiency are concerned, the proposed model outperformed the conventional MAC protocol that is based on contention and the T-LOHI protocol in a UASN. Dhongdi, Nahar, Sethunathan, Gudino, and Anupama (2017) proposed the cross-layer three-dimensional protocol stacks for acoustic sensor nodes. These authors mainly considered the energy and overall performance of the existing research.…”

The Underwater Acoustic Sensor Network (UASN) plays a significant role in many application areas like surveillance, security, commercial and industrial applications. In UASN routing, propagation delay and collision are perennial problems due to data transfers from various sensor nodes to the Sink Node (SN) at the same time. In this paper, we propose a Collision Aware Priority Level mechanism based on Medium Access Control protocol (CAPL-MAC) for transferring data from the Sensor Head (SH) to the SN. In the proposed protocol, we use Parallel Competition Scheme (PCS) for high channel utilization and energy saving of battery. In each Competition Cycle (CC), the data packet produced by each SH in a different time slot can joinin CC for data packet transmission in parallel with high channel utilization. In CAPL-MAC, each SH is assigned with a different Priority Level Number (PLN) during every CC. Instead of broadcasting, each SH sends its respective PLN to each SH with the help of the nearest SH to save battery energy. Based on the highest PLN, each SH communicates with SN without collision, and it will also reduce propagation delay as well as improve timing efficiency. Finally, Quality of Service is also improved. We adopt the single-layer approach with the handshaking protocol for communication. We carried out the simulation utilizing Aqua-Sim Network Simulator 2. The simulation results showed that the proposed CAPL-MAC protocol achieved the earlier stated performance rather than by existing protocols suchas Competitive Transmission-MAC and Channel Aware Aloha.
